Abstract
Magnetic resonance imaging of the sacroiliac joints is now frequently performed to help identify patients with early axial spondyloarthritis. However, differential diagnoses exist and should be recognized. The aim of this article is to review the most frequent differential diagnoses that may mimic inflammatory sacroiliitis in clinical practice.
Highlights
Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the sacroiliac joints (SIJ) is frequently performed to help identify patients with early axial spondyloarthritis before the in Reading the Sacroiliac Joints on development of the radiographic features of sacroiliitis
Is highly suggestive of sacroiliitis is included in the imaging arm of the ASAS criteria https://doi.org/10.3390/
The MR features of sacroiliitis in axSpa have been described conclusion, features of sacroiliitis axSpa have been described In In conclusion, thethe features ofbe sacroiliitis in in axSpa have in detail, several differential diagnoses have to kept in mind
Summary
Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the sacroiliac joints (SIJ) is frequently performed to help identify patients with early axial spondyloarthritis (axSpa) before the in Reading the Sacroiliac Joints on development of the radiographic features of sacroiliitis. Along with at least one other feature of axSpa [1,2]. The lesion definitions indicating signs diagnostics11112001 of activity (bone marrow edema (BME), capsulitis, joint space enhancement, inflammation at the site of erosion, enthesitis, joint space fluid) or structural changes (erosion, fat lesion, Academic Editor: sclerosis, ankylosis, non-bridging bone bud) have been standardized by the ASA-MRI. SIJ abnormalities on MRI in patients without axSpa [4,5].
